Economy Park pool reopens; county highlights summer events and free lunches for children
Summary
Beaver County staff said the Economy Park pool opens for lap and open swims, the county will host community festivals this month, and organizers warn of road closures for an upcoming triathlon with hundreds of registrants.
Beaver County officials said Economy Park Pool will open this Saturday under a partnership with the YWCA, and the county highlighted a series of summer events that will affect park schedules and local traffic.
A county staff member said, “It'll be open daily for lap swims from 11 to 12, and then, open swims from 12 to 6PM. They are offering starting Monday through August 18, free lunch for anyone under any school aged children.”
Officials said the county is sponsoring a Barbecue and Brews festival at Townsend Park from 12 to 6 p.m. on Saturday. They also said the Jenny Lee Triathlon returns next weekend; organizers will place road-closure signs beginning Monday to notify residents.
A parks official said the triathlon has about 650 registrations and that the event draws visitors from outside the region; the official described it as the fourth year the triathlon has come to the park.
County staff asked residents to note the swim schedule and park events and to watch for posted closures related to the triathlon. No formal county action was recorded during the work session on these items.
